No, don't size down one, it fits you perfectly! Love the cardigan (gay hand wave)! Jeans work with it, but I'm not so sure about the shoes (Yukuten?). Would rather have brown, leather (personal preference)! :/

it wasn't a hand wave , i was holding my phone up to take the picture (my main camera is broken). I wented with the black/grey sebago boots to work with my cardigan. Or do you think a dark brown leather would work better?

Lol, I meant I was gay-hand-waving (for saying 'love')! Well, I don't know if it would work better, but personally, I prefer brown leather!

Good thought. Perhaps the MC folks seem more civil (and thus possibly apathetic) because it's a reflection of their daily lives. Viewing the MC area of this forum provides a sense of people for whom life's greatest goal is having a rewarding professional life and the clothing to match. If being viewed as a professional is one of the most important things in life, you wouldn't want your behavior to be misinterpreted as that of a janitor or construction worker would you?

Maybe they're just used to communicating in one dialect and social structure, and haven't spent enough time online, or maybe they have a personal complex tied in with their fashion aspirations ('I wanna look like my grampa!' 'I wanna look like a viscount!' 'I wanna look like the CEO of a cricket equipment company!') that makes them communicate in what they think is a 'refined' way. Which is fucking stupid IMO but there are plenty of MCers who don't mess around with it and who seem like stand-up guys in general.

Well obviously there are old people who are still fucking stupid, just like there are young people who retreat into archaic diction when they feel threatened. So I don't know how you can believe what you're saying.

Interesting point (and, coincidently/thankfully, the kind of response that should be appreciated over said circular logic [lol, couldn't help it ]). I guess what I am getting at is that this kind of stunted internet talk gets irritating after a while, and proper discussion is always nice.
